Love him or hate him, this is happening because of pressure from the 45th President.
The Texas secretary of state's office announced Thursday it would carry out an election audit in four of the state's largest counties.
The announcement came just hours after former President Trump, who carried Texas, demanded Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) back a bill to launch an election audit in the Lone Star State.
“Despite my big win in Texas, I hear Texans want an election audit! You know your fellow Texans have big questions about the November 2020 Election,” Trump said.
“Let's get to the bottom of the 2020 Presidential Election Scam!”
The secretary of state's office said “a full and comprehensive forensic audit” is underway in Dallas, Harris, Tarrant, and Collin counties. President Biden won in Dallas, Harris and Tarrant counties, while Trump carried Collin County.
Democrats immediately decried the announcement.
